Description:

6,000 kanji in your pocket

Unlike most Japanese dictionary apps, this one provides a simple way of finding kanji — by radical, number of strokes, grade, meaning and more — as well as words. When searching for words, tap a kanji in a compound to see its details; when searching for kanji, tap it to see its compounds. With its streamlined interface and multiple search methods, wishoTouch lets you quickly find that word or kanji.

WORD SEARCH
• Based on JMdict (140,000+ entries)
• Look up in English, kanji, kana, romaji
• To cancel a search, tap the translucent screen
• Tap a kanji in results to see its details
• Tap a part-of-speech to sort the results; tap it again to unsort
• Refine a search with additional term in either language, e.g.
• ‘red か’ (without quotes) searches for entries containing ‘red’ where kana starts with ‘か’
• ‘赤 か’ (without quotes) searches for entries starting with ‘赤’ where kana starts with ‘か’
• 赤 -red (space hyphen) searches for entries starting with ‘赤’ where English does not contain ‘red’

• Optional inclusion of non-jouyou kanji
